cause and effect

 


In English, the meaning of the sentence cause and effect is cause and effect. Namely, types of compound sentences that have causes and can lead to effects. Cause means something that happens, while the effect is a consequence or result of the incident.

Typically, these sentences are characterized by a marker word or phrase called a connector. Because it is often used in conjunction with a degree of comparison sentence, you can learn both while learning! What are the connectors in cause and effect? Let's understand the following explanation. There are formulas and example sentences too, you know!

Cause and effect is divided into two, namely those that are followed by nouns, verbs or clauses. To master it, you need to first compare the cause and effect sentences.

Cause and effect + Noun

Rumus 1:  Connector + Cause, + Effect

Konektor: due to, owing to, because of, as a result of, as a consequence of

Example: 

Due to the storm we cannot go to the beach   (connector) + (cause) + (effect)

Another example:

- Owing to her kindness, Mia gave her a gift. (Because of his kindness, Mia gave him a gift.)

- Because of this cooking book, I am able to cook my own meal. (Because of this cookbook, I can cook    my own food.)

Formula 2: Effect + Connector + Cause

- I got sick due to the cold weather  (effect) + (connector) + (cause)

Another example:

- The car was broken as a result of her recklessness. (His car was damaged by his carelessness.)

- Alvin got a warning as a consequence of his laziness. (Alvin got a warning for his laziness.)

- She was late because of her bad sleeping habit. (She was late because of her bad sleep schedule.)

Cause and effect + Verb or Clause

Connector: because, since, for, hence, thus, therefore, consequently, as a result

Example:

- Because her brother lives in Jakarta, she must visit him every month. (Since her older brother lives in     Jakarta, she has to visit him every month.)

- This bag is expensive since the famous brand Chanel made it. (These bags are really expensive               because a well-known brand called Chanel made them.)

- My arms are hurt. Hence, i cannot swim today. (My arm hurts. So, I can't swim today.)

- As our teacher has suggested to stay at home, she gives us a pile of homework. (Since our teacher had    advised us to stay home, he gave us homework.)

- He is invited to the party for he's one of the funniest guys in school. (He was invited to the party             because he was one of the most humorous people in school.)
